Game Day: Saturday, September 18, 2021

Weather update (Saturday @ 6:45 AM):  Good news — our games will be played as scheduled!

We have a set of three games on Saturday, September 18 at the Metro North Park TOPS field.

Game day notes:

  • Hot weather / hydration:  We’re likely to have hot weather, so it’s time for a reminder about hydration. Tip:  good hydration starts before Saturday morning!
  • Uniforms:  We’re wearing our yellow uniforms for all games. We’ll use colored practice vests to distinguish teams in the intra-Academy games. If your daughter has both this year’s and last year’s yellow shirt, have her wear her new one and bring her old one as a potential loaner.
    • Uniform not yet delivered?  Have your daughter wear her gray practice shirt. If she doesn’t have either her yellow game day shirt or gray practice shirt, have her wear a light colored shirt.
  • No jewelry!  This is worth a regular reminder, because it can prevent spirit-crushing boo-hoo-hoo moments. Link:  jewelry rule
  • Warm-up captains:  Girls whose names are in bold print with a (C) indicator are warm-up captains. They are responsible for gathering their teammates and helping the coaches start pre-game warm-up. Link:  warm-up ideas
